Class 3G spent part of St George’s Day attending a very special Mass at St Monica’s Church. They listened thoughtfully as Father Ged led a moving service, encouraging everyone to reflect on kindness, acceptance, and thinking of others. The children were exceptionally well behaved throughout and showed great respect during this special time.

During the service, they heard the words of Jesus:

“Love one another as I have loved you” (John 13:34)

This reminded them how important it is to care for others. Each child received a special blessing and took a quiet moment to pray for their loved ones.

They also learned that St George is special to Catholics because he was a brave soldier who loved God very much and chose to stand up for his faith, even when it was difficult.

Faith in Action

Inspired by the message of the Mass, Class 3G reflected on how they can live out their faith in everyday life. They thought about small but important actions such as being kind to others, including everyone in their games, and helping those in need. The children were encouraged to follow St George’s example of courage and to show love and respect in their words and actions both in school and at home.
